    Just watched a bit of U2, Jagger and Fergie doing Gimme Shelter, kind of meh. Not the first time in the past year that I've gotten the impression that Bono is starting to lose interest in the whole thing (and I say that after spending ?200 plus the $40 annual membership fee to see U2 in Munich next September). And Jagger almost seems like he's parodying himself (and mind you, I love the Stones, was listening to Sticky Fingers this morning).

    As for Fergie, I was amazed at how grating her voice was. Where's Toni Tennille when you need her?

    I'll bet when Lennon-McCartney wrote this song in the mid-sixties they never expected over forty years later that the song would be interpreted like this.

    Two Louisiana tweens perform. I think this certainly qualifies as an "unexpected cover."

    A cover version of And I Love Her

    "And I Love Her" is one of my favorite Beatles songs.

    It's one of mine too, and it's one of the Beatles most beautiful, haunting melodies.

    I'm very impressed with the talent in that clip, and with the feeling that the violinist brings to it. You can almost hear the lyrics. I had no idea kids this age would care about playing Beatles songs, especially on the violin. :eek: The guitarist isn't bad either.

    "What Is A Shooting Star?" was originally on a kiddie record called "Space Songs," which, as a wee budding nerd, I absolutely loved.

    They Might Be Giants have done a lovely job with it.
